Coinbase is gonna be in hot water any day now. Yo. Please let me help you lolol
Wait tell me this isn’t you
Stop thinking of bitcoin as a tool to make you more dollars.
If your bitcoin is in an exchange, it’s fiat.
There is no bitcoin “space”. Bitcoin doesn’t leave room. There is bitcoin and there is fiat ponzi scheme crypto.
Grayscale your phone. It’s an insane difference. Try it for at least 2 weeks, and you won’t want to go back. Add an accessibility shortcut to turn colors back if you need it for something specific.
The colors on your phone are more vibrant than irl, so our attention is easily hooked even if you’re off social media. Grayscale makes your phone less interesting. It’s like how your brain intuitively knows you can’t click a grayed out button. Same thing happens, and if you’re intentional, you can retrain your brain to see your phone as a tool rather than a place to get cheap dopamine.
Give your time back to yourself. It’s the only thing more scarce than bitcoin.
Eh, I feel like the real reveal would be the entire US military 😬 but yeah in terms of something you can throw darts at, ya got nada
Bitcoin is not a speculative investment.
1 btc will literally always be 1 btc
Buying bitcoin is not investing. It’s not a way to turn money into more money.
Bitcoin doesn’t turn into more bitcoin.
My mentality when it comes to stacking, holding, and trying to convince others to do the same is primarily one of fascination and excitement. I’m honestly less interested in making a lot of money or convincing people they should too.
If and when bitcoin takes over, everyone will be better off, regardless of whether or not they were “early”. At least, that’s the hope. In that sense, the pressure is off, and that’s a relief because I’m not interested in telling people about how to make a lot of money. That just feels grimy.
Buying and talking to people about bitcoin is fun because it feels great to be a part of something that will inevitably change the world. It’s fun discussing the deep axioms at play, and it’s surreal to see a transaction confirmation.
Buy bitcoin or don’t, but let’s have a conversation about what money is, immutable information, and how cryptography can change the world.
It’s nice to see Fidelity compare bitcoin to a spreadsheet. The digital gold thing is an ok starting point, but it’s ultimately confusing and not accurate.
Money is information.
Alright, I'm headed to bed before I look like this guy on the couch. Goodnight all you cool cats 😎💤🫂

Dave Ramsey’s envelope system sure makes explaining bitcoin a confusing process.
Money is information.
I just wanna know if there’s somewhere I can watch the CSW lawsuit
#plebchain
Welp, bitcoin is over. Satoshi has revealed himself and is reclaiming control over bitcoin. The network, miners, and wallets. Our computers and ASICS and raspberry pi’s and hard wallets and the internet itself all belongs to the Chosen One.
All hail CSW!
Just a quick reminder:
Anything you input or upload into an internet connected device is at some risk of being exposed.
That is all, carry on.

Really great take. I agree with most of this. I happen to think bitcoin is past the point of no return. It wasn’t always “destined” for success, but, imo, it is now. I don’t think it can be stopped at this point.
Aside from that, I fully agree that there will be unintended, unknown, negative consequences of going to a money that has zero democratic levers.
We live in a society where the disease of hyper-consumerism is infecting everything around us. Human nature, not fiat, is it root. But fiat is fuel to the fire.
When you take away the “securities” and comforts that have been afforded to us via accelerated advancement and highly incentivized investment in anything and everything… I’m concerned about what will be left, and what the new method of self-destruction will be. I have hope, but not any degree of certainty, that things will be less bad overall with bitcoin.
But the human nature problem is not fixed by bitcoin, and some things will be worse.
